With the objectives of to assess the prevalence and type of ruminal and reticular foreign bodies in cattle slaughtered at Boditi Municipal Abattoir. The study animals were selected by using systematic random sampling method from the total slaughtered animals. From the total of 514 male animals that were examined, 20.8% (n=107) were had foreign bodies at slaughter. When the prevalence was compared between breed, among different age groups, among different body condition score and animal originated from different areas, higher prevalence of foreign bodies 39.6%, 27.2%, 40.1%, 26.1% were observed in cross breed, old animals, animals having poor body condition and animals originate from Sodo, respectively. These factors are considered as potential risk factors and found highly significantly associated (P<0.05) with the occurrence of foreign bodies. The rumen harbored mostly non-metallic materials while reticulum was the major site for the retention of metallic objects. Plastics were recovered as the most common foreign bodies followed by fabrics, metallic, leathers and others. Therefore, appropriate solid waste disposal system need to implement in the study area to prevent health risk of ruminants and also to protect the environment. Key words: Foreign Bodies Indigestible Prevalence INTRODUCTION of the peoples [3]. Ethiopia is known for its high livestock population, being the first in Africa and tenth in Livestock are a source of high-quality protein (meat, the world [4]. milk and eggs) and also contribute to the economic Ethiopia has an enormous and diverse livestock welfare of people by providing hides, skins, fertilizer and population that plays an important role in the economy power of traction for agricultural purposes, increasing the and livelihoods of farmers and pastoralists with a total productivity of small holdings [1]. They are also a ‘living contribution of 15% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) savings bank’, serving as a financial reserve for periods and 33% of the agricultural output. Current estimates of of economic distress and crop failure and as a primary livestock population show that the total cattle population source of cash income [2]. In many developing countries, for the country is estimated to be about 57.83 million, like Ethiopia, domestic animals play a crucial role in they 28.89 million sheep, 29.70 million goats, 2.08 million constitute as source for traction power, income, in horses, 7.88 million donkeys, 1.23 million camels in provision of meat, milk, honey, eggs, cheese and butter Ethiopia [5].

Because of their mainly associated with foreign bodies [21]. In Ethiopian indiscriminate feeding habits, cattle are known to ingest information regarding the magnitude and occurrence of and, at times, choke because of ingestion of different fore stomach foreign bodies is very limited and the types of indigestible materials referred to as foreign ruminants are kept under poor extensive farming system bodies [9]. Gastrointestinal foreign bodies are among the and they are more likely to be exposed to ingestion of most common cause of death in veterinary medicine. indigestible materials from different sources due to Sheep and goats are highly selective feeder and ingest high environmental contamination with plastic bags significantly less amount of foreign bodies as compared and other materials. The fact that rumen impaction by to cattle [10]. these foreign bodies is mainly asymptomatic in nature Cattle are more susceptible to foreign body syndrome and only diagnosed in live animals if the material is than small ruminants because they do not use their lips accumulated in large amount and thus, it can be for the prehension of food stuff and are more likely to eat adequately studied in abattoirs. Therefore, the objectives chopped feed; lack of oral discrimination in cattle may of this study were to assess the prevalence and type of lead to ingestion of foreign bodies would be rejected by ruminal and reticular foreign bodies in cattle slaughtered other species [11]. Animals with nutritional deficiencies at Boditi Municipal Abattoir. To correlate the frequency and unbalanced dietary habits lead to ingest various of foreign bodies with animal factors such as age, breed, types of foreign bodies deliberately. The indiscriminate body condition and origin of animals. feeding habits and mineral deficiency makes them susceptible to inadvertent ingestion of foreign materials. MATERIALS AND METHODS They are the root causes for various problems in different organ of the animals, mainly in rumen and reticulum [12]. Description of the Study Area: The study was conducted The Industrialization and mechanization of agriculture from November, 2017 to April, 2018 at Boditi Municipal have further increased the incidence of foreign bodies in Abattoir, Boditi town. Boditii is a town in Wolaita zone; the animals [13].

  • Demography and Health
    SNNPR Southern Nations Nationalities and Peoples Demography and Health Aynalem Adugna, July 2014 www.EthioDemographyAndHealth.Org 2 SNNPR is one of the largest regions in Ethiopia, accounting for more than 10 percent of the country’s land area [1]. The mid-2008 population is estimated at nearly 16,000,000; almost a fifth of the country’s population. With less than one in tenth of its population (8.9%) living in urban areas in 2008 the region is overwhelmingly rural. "The region is divided into 13 administrative zones, 133 Woredas and 3512 Kebeles, and its capital is Awassa." [1] "The SNNPR is an extremely ethnically diverse region of Ethiopia, inhabited by more than 80 ethnic groups, of which over 45 (or 56 percent) are indigenous to the region (CSA 1996). These ethnic groups are distinguished by different languages, cultures, and socioeconomic organizations. Although none of the indigenous ethnic groups dominates the ethnic makeup of the national population, there is a considerable ethnic imbalance within the region. The largest ethnic groups in the SNNPR are the Sidama (17.6 percent), Wolayta (11.7 percent), Gurage (8.8 percent), Hadiya (8.4 percent), Selite (7.1 percent), Gamo (6.7 percent), Keffa (5.3 percent), Gedeo (4.4 percent), and Kembata (4.3 percent) …. While the Sidama are the largest ethnic group in the region, each ethnic group is numerically dominant in its respective administrative zone, and there are large minority ethnic groups in each zone. The languages spoken in the SNNPR can be classified into four linguistic families: Cushitic, Nilotic, Omotic, and Semitic.

    DRMTechnical Periodic Monitoring Report Working 2016 Humanitarian Requirements Document – Ethiopia Group Covering 1 Jan to 31 Dec 2016 Prepared by Clusters and NDRMC Introduction The El Niño global climactic event significantly affected the 2015 meher/summer rains on the heels of failed belg/ spring rains in 2015, driving food insecurity, malnutrition and serious water shortages in many parts of the country. The Government and humanitarian partners issued a joint 2016 Humanitarian Requirements Document (HRD) in December 2015 requesting US$1.4 billion to assist 10.2 million people with food, health and nutrition, water, agriculture, shelter and non-food items, protection and emergency education responses. Following the delay and erratic performance of the belg/spring rains in 2016, a Prioritization Statement was issued in May 2016 with updated humanitarian requirements in nutrition (MAM), agriculture, shelter and non-food items and education.The Mid-Year Review of the HRD identified 9.7 million beneficiaries and updated the funding requirements to $1.2 billion. The 2016 HRD is 69 per cent funded, with contributions of $1.08 billion from international donors and the Government of Ethiopia (including carry-over resources from 2015). Under the leadership of the Government of Ethiopia delivery of life-saving and life- sustaining humanitarian assistance continues across the sectors. However, effective humanitarian response was challenged by shortage of resources, limited logistical capacities and associated delays, and weak real-time information management. This Periodic Monitoring Report (PMR) provides a summary of the cluster financial inputs against outputs and achievements against cluster objectives using secured funding since the launch of the 2016 HRD.

Watershed development is the approach best suited to address the sustainable use and management of resources. In Ethiopia, large-scale watershed development has been limited. In the country at large and the study area, Duguna Fango Werda, in particular is currently facing numerous environmental problems resulted from inappropriate agricultural practice and exploitation of natural resource base. Scarce vegetation cover associated with erosion induced factors exposing the study area to high rates of soil erosion and loss of soil fertility that initiated the researcher to conduct this study in this area.Data were collected from sources such as, SRTM-DEM and Satellite Image with row 55 and path 169 full scene of the year 2017 downloaded from USGS; Google earth image; Shape file of the SNNP Regional State; GPS reading point data from the study area and physical observation of the area studied. Materials used to effectively execute this research include Global Mapper 11, ArcGIS10.3 and ERDAS Imagine 2014. Land use/cover classifications were generated through image classification of Landsat ETM+5 satellite imagery using ERDAS Imagine 2014softwareand mapped using ArcGIS10.3.
